I went back to Zumba last night, after being away for a week and a half. Though I absolutely loved it, my body wasn't as thrilled. After coming home, having dinner, doing dishes and settling Richie into bed, I laid on my bed to watch a little tv. Laying there, I wanted nothing more than to just curl up and sleep. Still, I had to shower. My body cried out for the hot water and I found myself turning it up higher than usual. The 11 o'clock news was set to come on and usually I watch it. However, last night I gingerly climbed into bed, trying to placate the aching muscles. With every twist and turn I discovered new aches in places I didn't know had anything to ache.
Sleep didn't come very easily thanks to the soreness and most likely the shower. I think I'm going to have to start showering earlier, when I do it right before bed it makes it harder for me to get to sleep...go figure. Even so, I finally drifted off to sleep only it seems, to be waken up right away. Did 6 hours really go by already? Has someone played a joke on me? Surely that couldn't be my alarm!
I dragged myself out of bed and even resisted the urge to pull on my sweatpants. There are places that are still crying from last night. I want to sleep, just for a couple days, that's all. Yet, here I am, at work, hoping to get through the day. I've purchased these Green Tea pills a friend recommended. She said they've helped her lose weight so I'm hopeful that they'll help me jump start my loss. I am eating healthier and exercising so, a little help would be nice. Really, a lot of help would be nice. Come over here and lend me a hand, someone need to get the Icy Hot onto the right spots on my back...no more skipping Zumba! Owwwwwwwwwww
